Heaven is Now: Enough Excuses Paperback

As long as you are moving in alignment with your truth and with your purpose, it is gonna be alright. In fact, it already is. I want you to be inspired and motivated to get up and say yes to your life. I want you to show up in your life and realize it is happening right now. You deserve to be happy and to experience joy and success. It is okay to want and to dream and to fall and to cry. But you get back off your butt and start living again.

We do this step by step with intention. Some of the talks, essays, and meditations will hopefully tug at you to get up and move forward from wherever you might be. Ultimately, I hope you will be inspired to begin creating your own heaven now.

Excerpt:

We spend too much time waiting. Waiting to live, waiting to love, waiting to be happy, waiting to be fulfilled, and waiting to die. Why? Why do we waste the precious time we have on this planet, waiting for things that, if we decided to, we could have now?

We can have life now. We can have love now. We can be happy now. We can be fulfilled now. But we have to want it and we have to act like we want it.

Most of the essays, writings, and talks in this book are meant to inspire you and remind you of your truth. This essay takes it a step further and is meant to drive you to action. You want a better life? Act like it. You want love? Act like it. You want happiness? Act like it. You want to be fulfilled? Act like it.

This book is a compilation of inspirational essays, talks, meditations, and poetry. They are meant to provide inspiration so that you can begin creating your heaven now.

The inspirational talks include eight that I have given in spiritual groups and gatherings as a minister. The talks are primarily as I delivered them, with minor changes. You are welcome to use these talks to inspire yourself or others. However, if asked, please give credit to this book of inspirational and spiritual talks.

Included in the eight talks are three talks that are suitable for the holidays of Thanksgiving, Christmas or winter holidays, and Easter or Rebirth.

I hope that you enjoy this book, are inspired to live the life you are meant to live, and know that yes, your Heaven is Now!

"Great for spiritual book clubs and discussion groups."

"I was reminded that I once dreamed and could again - and make them come true!"

"I'm not religious at all and sometimes question the nature of god, but Bernette delivers messages that resonated with me on a deeper level and whatever I call that power doesn't matter. I got the point!"
